What is NRS gonna do in the downtime of the Battle Arena?

[Compbros]

Between week 4 and the quarterfinals there's a 2 week gap and all finals (quarter,semi, finals) has a two week voting period. So, what are they gonna do in terms of content in this downtime? Reveals? A second, smaller Battle Arena? Story/gameplay trailers?

No clue at all, just going by what I see. The Battle Arena, as of now, will probably end after the release of the game.

You don't need to have something every week, if anything they'll reveal Online and SP features.

I just find it weird that we still don't know all the cast, info, stages, etc.... and the Battle Arena is only gonna reveal so much. We're less than 60 days away with two conferences between that will probably reveal 4-6 characters and some features. They seem to be going all out to bring attention to the game after months of nothing but then there's weeks of just nothing now.

probably tournaments like they did with mk9


edit: but then again, we had a demo and we probably don't have one now

We don't need to know all of the cast.

This would be my guess at a NRS meeting at that time.

Fair, what about modes? There's some sort of "mission mode" based on the Red Son bonus, are these based on past comic storylines or just random missions? Are we getting other modes beyond arcade, versus and story?

Like I said in the post above, they can reveal --

• Single Player Content (Challenge Tower)
• More characters, remember we're still missing a lot of females, villains, and marquee heroes
• Online Capabilities
• Story Mode Details, because LBSH, we still don't know what's up with the plot of the game
• Vi-Docs

And, not to promote it, but, the game will be street date broken, it's notorious in the industry, if anyone is that thirsty to find info, you'll find it.

They're just going to troll the shit out of us as usual, you know that.

Raising the hype with sneak peaks and trailers is what im guessing.
